Welcome

Welcome to Verde Valley School. 

Your time at VVS will be busy and rewarding. You will live, study, and work with people from all over the world. You will take part in field trips, work jobs, and project periods, and will discover strengths and interests that you never knew you had. Verde Valley School is located in the heart of the red rock country and out your back door a desert landscape will invite you to explore. You might find yourself aboard a horse, carrying a backpack, peddling a mountain bike, or climbing a rock face. You will learn from a dedicated cadre of teachers, mentors, and peers, and lifelong friendships will develop.

The VVS experience rooted in these five principles – Academic Excellence, World Citizenship, Physical Labor, Service to Humanity, and Environmental Stewardship – will give you confidence and prepare you for a meaningful future.
